[ Upstream commit d7059ca0147adcd495f3c5b41f260e1ac55bb679 ]

The command "make -j8 C=1 CHECK=scripts/coccicheck" produces
lots of "coccicheck failed" error messages.

Julia Lawall explained the Coccinelle behavior as follows:
"The problem on the Coccinelle side is that it uses a subdirectory
with the name of the semantic patch to store standard output and
standard error for the different threads.  I didn't want to use a
name with the pid, so that one could easily find this information
while Coccinelle is running.  Normally the subdirectory is cleaned
up when Coccinelle completes, so there is only one of them at a time.
Maybe it is best to just add the pid.  There is the risk that these
subdirectories will accumulate if Coccinelle crashes in a way such
that they don't get cleaned up, but Coccinelle could print a warning
if it detects this case, rather than failing."

When scripts/coccicheck is used as CHECK tool and -j option is given
to Make, the whole of build process runs in parallel.  So, multiple
processes try to get access to the same subdirectory.

I notice spatch creates the subdirectory only when it runs in parallel
(i.e. --jobs &lt;N&gt; is given and &lt;N&gt; is greater than 1).

Setting NPROC=1 is a reasonable solution; spatch does not create the
subdirectory.  Besides, ONLINE=1 mode takes a single file input for
each spatch invocation, so there is no reason to parallelize it in
the first place.

<title>kbuild: pkg: use --transform option to prefix paths in tar</title>

[ Upstream commit 2dbc644ac62bbcb9ee78e84719953f611be0413d ]

For rpm-pkg and deb-pkg, a source tar file is created.  All paths in
the archive must be prefixed with the base name of the tar so that
everything is contained in the directory when you extract it.

Currently, scripts/package/Makefile uses a symlink for that, and
removes it after the tar is created.

If you terminate the build during the tar creation, the symlink is
left over.  Then, at the next package build, you will see a warning
like follows:

  ln: '.' and 'kernel-4.14.0+/.' are the same file

It is possible to fix it by adding -n (--no-dereference) option to
the "ln" command, but a cleaner way is to use --transform option
of "tar" command.  This option is GNU extension, but it should not
hurt to use it in the Linux build system.

The 'S' flag is needed to exclude symlinks from the path fixup.
Without it, symlinks in the kernel are broken.

<title>module: set __jump_table alignment to 8</title>

[ Upstream commit ab42632156becd35d3884ee5c14da2bedbf3149a ]

For powerpc the __jump_table section in modules is not aligned, this
causes a WARN_ON() splat when loading a module containing a __jump_table.

Strict alignment became necessary with commit 3821fd35b58d
("jump_label: Reduce the size of struct static_key"), currently in
linux-next, which uses the two least significant bits of pointers to
__jump_table elements.

Fix by forcing __jump_table to 8, which is the same alignment used for
this section in the kernel proper.

commit 8d81ae05d0176da1c54aeaed697fa34be5c5575e upstream.

As of perl 5, version 26, subversion 0 (v5.26.0) some new warnings have
occurred when running checkpatch.

Unescaped left brace in regex is deprecated here (and will be fatal in
Perl 5.30), passed through in regex; marked by &lt;-- HERE in m/^(.\s*){
&lt;-- HERE \s*/ at scripts/checkpatch.pl line 3544.

Unescaped left brace in regex is deprecated here (and will be fatal in
Perl 5.30), passed through in regex; marked by &lt;-- HERE in m/^(.\s*){
&lt;-- HERE \s*/ at scripts/checkpatch.pl line 3885.

Unescaped left brace in regex is deprecated here (and will be fatal in
Perl 5.30), passed through in regex; marked by &lt;-- HERE in
m/^(\+.*(?:do|\))){ &lt;-- HERE / at scripts/checkpatch.pl line 4374.

It seems perfectly reasonable to do as the warning suggests and simply
escape the left brace in these three locations.

commit 79e51b5c2deea542b3bb8c66e0d502230b017dde upstream.

Currently it is impossible to edit the value of a config symbol with a
prompt longer than (terminal width - 2) characters.  dialog_inputbox()
calculates a negative x-offset for the input window and newwin() fails
as this is invalid.  It also doesn't check for this failure, so it
busy-loops calling wgetch(NULL) which immediately returns -1.

The additions in the offset calculations also don't match the intended
size of the window.

Limit the window size and calculate the offset similarly to
show_scroll_win().

Both Debian and kernel archs are "arm64" but UTS_MACHINE and gcc say
"aarch64".  Recognizing just the latter should be enough but let's
accept both in case something regresses again or an user sets
UTS_MACHINE=arm64.

Some people are able to trigger a race where autoksyms.h is used before
its empty version is even created.  Let's create it at the same time as
the directory holding it is created.

Pull kbuild fixes from Michal Marek:
 "Here are some regression fixes for kbuild:

   - modversion support for exported asm symbols (Nick Piggin). The
     affected architectures need separate patches adding
     asm-prototypes.h.

   - fix rebuilds of lib-ksyms.o (Nick Piggin)

   - -fno-PIE builds (Sebastian Siewior and Borislav Petkov). This is
     not a kernel regression, but one of the Debian gcc package.
     Nevertheless, it's quite annoying, so I think it should go into
     mainline and stable now"

* 'rc-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild:
  kbuild: Steal gcc's pie from the very beginning
  kbuild: be more careful about matching preprocessed asm ___EXPORT_SYMBOL
  x86/kexec: add -fno-PIE
  scripts/has-stack-protector: add -fno-PIE
  kbuild: add -fno-PIE
  kbuild: modversions for EXPORT_SYMBOL() for asm
  kbuild: prevent lib-ksyms.o rebuilds
